Entwerfen.



View of one of the medium structures in use as a cafe. The initial idea has been resolved, in response to ideas generated by the sketches uploaded yesterday, by further articulating and expressing the timber box that forms the accommodation part of the structure as a series of planes that are extruded to provide solar shading and platforms. Shutters at each end can also be pulled shut for protection or opened to act as visual indicators or markers.

'Drawbridges' can be pulled out from underneath the main pier structures that provide access into the back of the buildings.

The next stage for this design will be to consider the construction detailing, detailed planning and materiality more specifically.
